Had this lying around for ages. It was sent to me in error and they don't want it back.
I would like to do 1st come 1st serve, but if any developers (or mods) want it, shout out.
I will return here in a couple of days to check.
The successful poster can then pm me an address.

If you still have it, I will gladly pay you shipping to the US.

I think I saw them for about 5US$ on the web or maybe a bit more for a real one
Not sure how much it would cost to send.
I don't have a PayPal account here.
Would your border guards want paperwork?
Would being in an aircraft hold make it explode?
If shipping to the US would be silly, cost-wise, would the Netherlands be a viable option for you? I'd cover your expenses, naturally.......
It's just mine is going flat and the rip-offs for a replacement are plainly absurd over here.
ok I got over my laziness and took packet to post office and found out US postage is about £3.50 (and EU postage is about £2.50). Which is a lot less than I thought so I will pay P+P.
So Cajunflavoured if you still want it, PM me a name & address and it should be with you in 7 working days.

Hi there,
I wanted to upgrade my Qtek 9090. But i dropped it on the floor and now the screen turned white, but it still reacts on touch it. I dont know what is wrong with it, and i dont want to open is. Thus i want to make somebody very happy with it.
There is only a catch. I live in the Netherlands and i don't want to invest in sending the thing off to somewhere in the world unless somebody will send me something in return.
So my question is who want to invest in sending something back for this phone? And will have the honor to do so?
The phone will come with the usb-cradle, adapter and the phone of course.
So let's see what you guys will send me in return. Most original reply wins!

Hi
I´m really interested as I can re start working again with that wonderfull device
Hope you can consider me
Thanks!
Sell it on eBay, I'm sure someone will buy it.
if its available
If you have paypal I'd be more than willing to send the money to ship it. Would use it to help development and porting for other devices. If someone has a need to use it as an actual phone that would obviously take precedence. If you happen to choose to send it my way just PM me and I'm sure to check it throughout the day.
Generous gesture to whoever you choose to send the device to! Great community we have here!
i may be interested in it too, second phone will speed up my development process

XeneRoX it's not my idea to get money for this phone. It served me perfectly and i've got enough HTC phones to keep me busy.
As I said in my first post: I want to make somebody happy with it, but if i invest my time and money in sending the device i want something in return. Dont think in big expansive stuff but original or something different.
To give u an idea what i mean with original. My girlfriend came up with the idea that who ever receives my qtek will send me a photo of him and the family he settled with. Please note this is my first ever HTC device and is my "little" baby.
So please spark up those creativity thoughts and let me know what you came up with.
Oh almost forgot i wil post a picture of the phone tomorrow.
as much as i like your contest and i like that its another give away contest on the forum <something that i havent seen to any other forums so far?,i dont find a very good idea for people to send private infos to total strangers.on the internet
i dont want to imply anything bad and i think its nice that you dont wish to make any profit of it by selling it on ebay BUT when you said in the end of your post for whoever wins the phone to send you a photo of him once he receives the phone,that i thought it was too bit risky.
you see the thing with the internet is that anything can happen becouse you dont know who is who and you only see a chat name and thats all.so unless it has to do with online stores like ebay for eg i wouldnt recommend to people to send those kind of private infos to strangers like a photo of themshelfs for eg.
and then again sorry i did not try to insault you.its just the way i see it.
hello,
I'm Mihai from Romania, I'm having my master degree at the Economics University and I think it is a great phone, (you know like the german cars,it will last you forever).
In exchange for the phone I can give you a representation in wood of Count Dracula (from Bram Stoker novel Dracula) or if you like art I can make a photo album with my city Oradea (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oradea) all pictures made by me.I hope that you will be interested in the exchange.
Thanks,Mihai

In that case, here's my gift...
I'll take the phone around with me as I travel to different places and e-mail you pictures of the phone in different areas. (e.g, If I go to a lake I'll take a picture of it by the lake, if I go to vacation somewhere...)
I could even make a website with archives of everywhere the phone has visited.

As you said it will cost me 50 euro max 2 send it somewhere on this earth. So i dont know what your problem is with my proposition? And I will do it my way!
Please read my posts it clearly reads i will send the device to the person who wins (all costs included) and the only thing I ask is that somebody thinks about a original idea or gift and do/send something when they receive the device. I dont know where your trust issues are based upon but if you dont have anything good to say about my post, dont reply at all!

APRIL FOOL . . . .
With support for the Wildfire S being dropped by AlphaRevX, it looks like the only way to achieve S-OFF is using an XTC clip. For me, it's a bit too expensive to justify buying a clip and using it only once. This thread is for anyone that's interested in pooling together and purchasing the regular XTC Clip that could be shared and then resold. Post below if you are interested and want your name and country added to the list at the bottom.
UK (run by mphi)
The process:
I ordered the clip, and posted it off to the first participant who will post it back to me once finished so that I can post it to the next participant and so on. Everything is done through eBay reputation so that all participants have some protection. I'll set up a fixed price listing with payments through PayPal. eBay buyer requirements: At least 10 positive feedback comments, with 95%+ positive.
Instructions:
l00k said:
Step A) Create a goldcard with unlock feature
1. insert MicroSD/TFlash card in your XTC-Clip
2. click "Create Goldcard"
Step B) Unlock phone - (simlock, SuperCID, security unlock / S-OFF)
1. insert the XTC-Clip Flex-PCB-SIM-Adapter in HTC Marvel
2. insert the goldcard from step A) in HTC Marvel
3. attach battery to HTC Marvel
4. attach battery or usb cable to XTC-Clip
5. press [VOL DOWN] + [POWER] to start bootloader
6. wait approx. 1 minute and 30 seconds for unlock software to start
7. You will get "Get OEMSBL /Pls chk SECU-Flag on/off" Error
8. Press Vol Down now.
9. Wait approx. 30 sec while it shows Get SW Version
10. Select Diag by pressing power
11. press [ACTION] to start "Clear S58 Data"
12. press [POWER] to confirm
13. wait 10 seconds and phone will S-OFF

Would anyone here be interested in pooling together and purchasing an XTC Clip that could be shared?
I'm thinking I'll order the clip and post it off to the next person, who would post it to the next person after use and so on. When everyone is done with the clip we can attempt to sell it on eBay it and then split the proceeds evenly. It could work out to be quite cheap if enough people are interested.
We'd also have to set some rules to ensure the trustworthiness of the participants (and me) and I was thinking that everything could be done through eBay so that all participants have some protection.
I'm in the UK but don't mind posting to the EU if there are not enough interested people in the UK and everyone else agrees to this.
What do you think?

Have you considered XTC Clip Pay as you go?
I can let you have one of these for £20, this includes 1 unlock credit.
Each top up credit would be £15
I hope this helps, let me know if your interested
Thanks

Hi Darren,
That's a great offer; thanks! I've seen your eBay auctions and the £97.99 price I quoted in the original post is from one of your listings
Though I can't speak for everyone else, I'm a real cheapskate. And buying the non-PAYG clip and sharing it works out much cheaper in the long run:
Revenue from selling used clip @ £10 discount = £87.99 - 0.034*87.99 - £0.20 (Paypal fees) - £0.40 - £1.57 - 0.03*87.99 (eBay fees) = £80.18
Initial cost each = £97.99/5 = £19.60
Estimated actual cost each = (97.99 - 80.18)/5 = £3.57 + postage
(Refund after eBay sale of £16.03 each)
Would you ever consider an XTC Clip rental service? Say £7.50 + £80 collateral (to be refunded after the clip is received back)? PayPal reduces its fees proportionally after partial refunds and I think it would sell quite well...
Hi,
I am in Licolnshire in the UK and would be willing to sign up for this too, provided that it is cheap enough of course!

One more person and it would be an initial cost of about £20, then a refund of about £15 after resale on eBay.

Yep my intention was that it was to be sent from address to address. If people wanted to send phones to me to be unlocked, I would insist on sending the phones back via an insured courier so it would work out more expensive.
If you trust me enough and don't mind spending a bit more to cover the postage, I'm happy to do this as well.

Last time they said something like that, the next message was that the order had been cancelled. That was because they never had the stock they sold in the first place.
Bastards. A lot of people got screwed over on that one.
Just like what att did when they had for that price
My hopes are still up on this one. The fact that it sold out so quickly tells me that they had a fairly-decent cap on the number of purchases. I have ordered from them a number of times before and haven't had any bad experiences with them -- yes, they can be a tad slow sometimes, but they are usually fairly good about getting things processed and shipped. I (perhaps too optimistically) give them until the end of this business week before I start worrying.

Apologize for the double post, but I have some further information on the matter. I contacted their support the other day and they just for back to me with this:

Expansys is selling the glamour gray. What is the difference between the glamour gray and gunmetal gray?
I'm so tempted to buy now rather than wait for white in a couple of days
I have to control myself until white is released on Apr 5th.

Hoping I'm OK and that I got in fast enough; the site still shows "100+" in stock, and my Paypal payment shows "completed". The order page just says "Your order will be processed soon. Our order processing team work 8am - 6pm weekdays." though, and it isn't clear what time zones that's for. (My order was charged by Paypal well before 6pm Central, and other things on the site mostly seem to reference Central time.)

Well, after my debacle with Handtec I just ordered from Expansys...
$669.99 (and don't forget about 2% back from Fatwallet or 1.5% from eBates.)
EDIT: Here's the link, and I have no affiliation with them.

It did say 100 + in stock earlier. I just ordered and now it says 4 days. Think I missed the first batch.

Let me know your order ref and I will chase it down. Should be no problem for it to go out Wednesday.

It didn't say that earlier. My guess is they've sold out of their first 100+ units already, and don't expect to receive another shipment for four days.
It still said "100+" a full hour and a half after my order was placed, which was when I last checked, but they were out of stock an hour later apparently.

I don't believe you missed it. We just had a fraudster order batches of 100's til it quit showing stock. We have deleted those orders so it should be showing stock again very soon. The fraud attempts still amaze me.

Wow. That is just unreal. I'm surprised your system will even accept an order of that volume without requiring an override of some kind; that'd be getting on for US$70,000 per order!
On the plus side, this presumably means my own order must've been received while it was still in stock. You said they're supposed to ship tomorrow, and I got two-day shipping, so that means a phone by the weekend. Woo hoo!!! :-D

Whoops, our posts crossed and I didn't see this. Actually, looking at my order, it's just changed to "Ready to ship", so I think we're set.
Awesome news. Went with next day shipping. Had cash to spend after my NCAA bracket win.
Hey guys, I just noticed in THIS thread that Best Buy has an offer going on where if you buy an AT&T or Sprint LGOG you should get a free headset with it.
From what it sounds like, it is a good headset.
I don't know when they started this or how long it will last, but it was confirmed still going on as of yesterday (1/5/2013).
If you bought an OG from Best Buy and didn't get a headset, you should be able to go in with your receipt and ask for the headset (others in the thread have been able to).
I have not been able to get mine yet, but my fingers are crossed.
Got mine today.
It didn't seem like well known information so I wanted to post it here, sorry if this is frowned upon.
HERE is the link to the offer from Best Buy.
Edit..............
You have to be within the 30 days that you purchased your phone.
Also, it is an online promotion, but they can match it in the store.
Just show them the link, the will pull it up.
Have them Google "best buy free headset with optimus g".
Do not know when they started this but I just hit my 30 days with this phone so I doubt I can take advantage of this deal

Another user said they called BB and they said the purchase does have to be within the last 30 days.
Just went to BB and got my free headset (was within the 30-day window). Had to wait over 45min because they couldn't bring this deal up on their own internal website and showing them the site on my phone wasn't good enough. I used their own computer to go to XDA, hit the link provided by bleached45, and showed them the deal was legit.
Well worth the wait. Thanks for posting this deal bleached45! :good:
I got the free headset with my OG when I picked it up for $99 at BB. They miss labeled the price, as it was supposed to be $199 with free headset, but since I caught it they gave me the deal anyways.
The headset I got was a wrap around neck style with ear buds. It was a neat concept, but the audio quality was only good for phone calls. It was horrible for music, which I was hoping to use it for since it was more like Bluetooth ear buds than a normal headset.

Very cool, glad it worked.
Quick question, I got my OG as a gift and have the receipt but it has a family member's name and card number on it, did you need to show them ID or have your card (assuming you got it on a card).
Nope... Just needed my original receipt. They scanned it and it had all the info they needed. Didn't need to show a license or credit card.
Then again, after 45min they may have passed on all that info just to get me out of the store... Lol

Haha, well thanks for letting me know.
If I wasn't out of thanks for the day I would hit it.
i constantly read xda forum for whatever device i have but rarely post. But I had to post a reply to this. I purchased a LGOG about a week ago from BB and no one mentioned headset. i ran out during my lunch break to BB and picked it up. No questions asked...in/out in about 10min. Thanks XDA
i bought my phone on january 2nd and just called them about this, they thought i was crazy and had no recollection of it even when i told them how to find the link offer and they were looking at it they said i was SOL

Maybe try going in to the store and show them the link and ask if they will match the offer.
Go to the mobile section.
Sorry.

I used BB's own company computer to click the link provided by bleached45 in the first post to show them the deal was legit. So definitely go to the store.
Also, make sure you go back to the store where you purchased the LGOG. I figured all BBs are the same, but apparently not when it comes to purchasing phones. I went to one store and they told me too bad, I have to go to the store where I purchased the phone.
Not a good deal when you consider their phone price
Wow! $699 unactivated? That's pretty darn expensive, and makes the free $69 headset not worth it.
I got my OG for $579 direct from Ting, and I didn't think there was anything special about that price.
Swooby

I ordered my phone online and unfortunately there is no best buy and the closest one is over an hour away, dont feel like spending 3 hours driving to have the chance of them not giving it to me.
I got mine for the $99 promotion the day after christmas at a best buy about 30 minutes away. I have the receipt. Any chance they can mail it to me? If not I will get it next time im in that part of the valley.
Ah! Y'all are $99 carrier contract buyers. That make more sense.
I bought my OG without a contract through ting.com and pay $25/mo, saving me $65/mo...the price of that free BT headset!
Peace

I don't know, as far as I know, nobody has tried to get them to mail it.
I think your best bet is to go in, most people have reported that when they call about it bb said they couldn't match it, but in store they were able to get it.

okay, I got my parents to say I can go tomorrow or friday so is the music quality any good, or should I stick with my $100 wired headphones, and just sell it for other stuff I want to get?
Just stopped into my local BB they are out but there are some on the truck. Holding one for me when they put out the stock. Manager knew about the offer. Was way cool about it. Love best buy!

Bought my LGOG on 12/22, went in today and asked about the headset, the BB guy couldn't find the ad online, so I brought it up on my phone from the link here in the forums. He said OK no problem. Got me some new earbuds! They sound alright, not great. Actually they seem a little too small in my ears even with the bigger rubber cones. But I'm not going to b***** when they were free! :good:
